about

On a rainy day the news reported of the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war. I was playing some chords on my guitar and later I created the melody on the piano. The lyrics came down on me when I heard a baby crying and in my head it all mixed up with the horrors of war.

lyrics

I smell the cool breeze of the breaking morning
A cup of tea and honey on a slice of toast
Rise and shine in an imaginary world.
The laughter of children playing in the yard of my house

Parents sit next to them with a smile on their faces
A distant reality long gone

From afar, a baby is crying out for its parents
No one will come and satisfy its hunger for love
The city is in ruins. Tanks roll through the parks.
Corpses line the once busy street.

A loud bang, the baby falls silent,
A loud bang, the baby falls silent,
the rest of the houses collapse

My eyelids close forever. The noises become quieter.
I smell the cool breeze of the breaking morning
A cup of tea and honey on a slice of toast
Rise and shine for the last time

From afar, a baby is crying out for its parents
No one will come and satisfy its hunger for love
The city is in ruins. Tanks roll through the parks.
Corpses line the once busy street.

A loud bang, the baby falls silent,
A loud bang, the baby falls silent,

Wenn vergangene Sehnsüchte und unwiederbringliche Erlebnisse durch das morgens noch verschlafene Gehirn zucken, paaren sie sich mit Anklagen an gesellschaftliche Verirrungen und den Klängen von reduziertem Indierock. ... more
